Over the past year the Christchuch City Libraries have changed the way they approach the computer and internet.
Now members of the library can log on for a maximum of thirty minutes doing anything from watching videos on YouTube to holding books on your library account. Many people find this a positive change for the library and embrace the free internet and although the libraries have been a lot busier after the release of the free internet, many people are still sceptical about the free internet thinking, that after a while the cost of repairs and upgrades will fall back on taxpayers. But overall the free internet for the libraries is an optimistic adjustment to all of the libraries.
